All user reviews for the Boss ME-30

All dj t said ... The pedals are solid, the expression pedals a little less, but will. The most part of circuits is analog. Only the delay is numrique (I think). Phone output is handy.

UTILIZATION

It is a simple to use pedals trs, the rglages are few which facilitates che ... You can play with either preset or with each pedals (all effects can be controlled only be in "pedals" as phaser for example, which is a shame ...).
A light would catch rrto t welcome.

SOUND QUALITY

It is on the sound quality is not as good as the BOSS pedals. The distortion is horrible and gnrent vrament too much noise! The noise suppressor can not do anything. The wah is really horrible too (it sounds like a toy, it's really ridiculous).
The delay is not bad (the max delay of 2s), such as phaser, noise suppressor, chorus, reverb, compressor ... The expression pedals also serves as volume pedals. (The expression pedals on a system is low end, so no grsillement like a cry baby basic, and is good!)

OVERALL OPINION

The report qualitprix trs is good, I had bought 1000F. I have about 8 years, and is still in good condition. I always use (except for distortion and wah-wah that are unusable ...) For this price, do not expect a great quality. This offers a lot of effects pedals and is rather versatile. It is intended for beginners PDAL one or guitarists who want complter their set with a broad pallete of effects on the cheap.
Now offers multi Digitech effects of good quality and really cheap, but the era in this price range, the ME-30 silent the only choice (with the zoom, but it really rotten brand). On occasion, it really is not CHRE (below 100 a may be worth). I still think I will turn now to small Digitech ...

Everything has already been said. A little trick to avoid the bazaar to make the sound of a gas plant output (or headphone amp), use batteries or an adapter adapted to it (big difference between 9.6V and 9V) 9V is the need.

UTILIZATION

'Then, at the config, it is relatively simple, the buttons used to navigate on the small LCD screen that maps the knobs, effects, etc..

-The issue is quite simple, just set its presets, ie put the distortion / overdrive, reverb / delay / chorus / flanger, etc.. All settings go through the knobs on the screen ... Now just look, tweak his camera to take good little sounds (I have spent some time but believe me even a transistor amp can do it, we need a right mix of effects to be). Something that can make the sound less synthetic, there is a small button G. Sim. Amp., Seconded it and it is just what comes out is not too bad.

-Given that spun me (oh yeah the brother in law has offered multi-zoom tube ...), I have not had.

SOUND QUALITY

-As for effects, it's not a must that we must say. on the other hand, for sounds ranging from good to correct me, I did it. Again the question is, set, (for example my father was able to take one of his impressive Valvestate Marshall, limit one would have thought that there were lights in the bazaar), I have spent a lot time on the ME-30, and I knew good deal of overdrives and even distos to Jorn. on the other hand, at the wah, it will not at all, the notes do not show up, especially when you put the pedal to "down" position, so to speak. The gate can therefore avoid unwanted feedback when you do not play and the volume knobs of the guitar sound to max, however, it can no longer play the feedback taking notes ...

- So I used this pedal with a Marshall Valvestate, it was okay. Here I use the ME-30 with a JCM 900 4100 (EL 34 in the Electro-Harmonix) + Peavey 412js, all on my copy Thierry Cachera Washburn Nuno. There I can tell you that it serves well the little thing, lol. The JCM 900 with a very (too?) Marshall typed, so I use the overdrive and the distos thingy, of course, the presets should be readjusted, by lowering the drive of distos playing with équalo and tone, and nickel is there, I crunch sounds, the overdrive to Led Zep, distos of the Extreme or Jorn. I forgot about my Marshall it took down the pre-amp channel saturated at 4-6, the presence and ditto for the same pre-amp's clean channel. Then there is the sound! coupling of Marshall and ME-30 is really good (I repeat this is not a must), and finally for my part I draw something good. Of its type and synthetic Marshall ME-30 I can have some versatility in sound, distos, overdrive ...

-The clean sounds with reverb or delay and the compressor in order to put the sustain and attack, I know it made me go in enough atmospheric stuff lol. Otherwise I like the big distos properly set on boosted channel of the amp, it kills, big sound!

OVERALL OPINION

-It has been 2 years since I use it on different amps, Marshall ValveState transistor, Engl Thunder 50 combo, and there JCM 900, so I had time to find out what was capable multi-effects.

-What I like most is that in a small cross like that, there it all almost. What I like least is not a must ...

"I played a lot on the ME-5 of the father who is 18 and remains a safe bet.

For its low price, that's fine.

I choose other multi gender if I zoom the money ...

The different effects are:

Compressor, distortion, amp simulation, noisegaite, eq, delay, flanger, reverb, chorus, harmonizer, tremolo, wah wah, volume pedal, ring modulator, and a kind of whammy.1 input jack (6.35), 2 outputs (one stereo, one for in a sortie.Accordeur, fastainer: A kind of looper that can be reworked at the pitch and speed ... really nice ...!

many examples of settings are easily found by browsing the web root, I even read that some users "optimize" the firmware but I can not confirm that this hack is possible because I did not make the attempt by me same.

a very good presentation by Judge Dred here:

Is powered by batteries (6 * LR6) or external power supply 9 volts (ac-dc so )

UTILIZATION

Super simple setup, I bought OCCAZ without notice. I can not imagine that one can feel the need to rréférer a notice to make it work ...

a very large LCD screen makes its use very ergonomic. As usual, the expression pedal (wah and volume) is very soft, I would have preferred a more resistance Auntie.

SOUND QUALITY

The sounds are effective, I confirm that greatly facilitates distos are a bit cold at first sight but with an all-tube amp and a good scratch of course, you get a very good results anyway .... it's BOSS, we like it or not!

OVERALL OPINION

I have a month ago, I had the ME-20, I have been tempted by its big brother, this LCD is so convenient (see above) that convinced me to exchange ... Good idea!

The price / quality ratio is really good, I bought 69 euros, it is certainly a second hand and it certainly withstand a lot more ....! This choice I would do without hesitation.

This small pedalboard includes compressor, OV / DS equalizer / phaser, noise gate, delay, chorus / flanger / tremolo / pitch shifter, reverb, plus expression pedal that can manage the selection volume, wah, ring modulator, and different type of pitch (4 in all), the pedal having two possible positions in the effects loop.
all these effects are editable.
the pedal has a guitar input, 2 output (mono / stereo), headphone jack, a power supply sector (or cell, very practical).
Rackable not
it has 10 banks of 3 factory sounds and 10 user sound bank of 3 or 60 possible memory. There is also a manual mode, a tuner and a recorder that can record ten seconds with the possibility of slowing with or without changing pitch (very handy for deciphering solos)

UTILIZATION

configuration is very simple since it is in the form of a set of Boss pedals, c very clear and easy to edit each effect with many potentiometers.
the manual is good and sufficient, it has a blank table to record its end configs.
the presentation is really smart and can not be clearer

SOUND QUALITY

In fact, each pedal takes roughly the existing pedal boss, with a slightly lower quality (c normal). I use it for the metal and are true that the distortion sounds a synthetic hair and drools a little if you push the 'drive' but really tiny and c can have a big sound. modulation effects are really very good especially clear sound (besides the clear sound through headphones is pure happy) and the setting is still quite large (even if we want to combine several modulation effects which is impossible)

OVERALL OPINION

I use the ME-30 for over 3 years, and even in concert and I prefer it to the simple saturation of the amplifier. I use it live, not in the effects loop of the amp.
I think this is one of the best quality / price ratio in music today, one can learn to work for a sound BEGIN c ideal. Mine has had its day I'm going to buy a POD pro for studio for the ME-30 is a bit short. Otherwise affirmed as the most newbie: you throw it!
